Abstract
This article presents a brief history of the Department of Chinese Studies at McGill University. It examines Principal Currie’s tireless efforts to create such a department, and discusses various factors — such as the state of international relations in the 1920s and the establishment of the Gest Chinese Library — which motivated him. It describes Currie’s search for a Director, his selection of Dr. Kiang Kang-hu for the position, the Department’s years of operation, and its eventual closure in 1934.ResuméCet article présente les grandes lignes de l’évolution du Département d’études chinoises de l’Université McGill.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
